# Conversion

Every step you take can be converted into HelpSteps (HS) within the app. These HS serve as the base unit of the app and can be used in a variety of ways. If you choose not to spend or donate your HS within the app, you can exchange them for HSX tokens instead. The conversion from HS to HSX is governed by a unique bonding curve mechanism that ensures a non-inflationary process.

Please visit our [**How**](/whitepaper/hsx-token/anti-inflationary-conversion/how.md) page to learn more about anti-inflationary bonding curve mechanism.

This conversion feature allows users to extract the value of their earned HS and trade the HSX utility token as they see fit. Whether you want to use your HS within the app or exchange them for other tokens, HelpSteps gives you the flexibility to choose how you want to use the rewards you've earned through your active lifestyle.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help-steps-1.gitbook.io/whitepaper/the-app/features/conversion.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
